Manufactured in Spain as part of the early 20th century cottage industry in the Eibar region. Commonly categorized with the "Ruby" pistol, these were primarily made for export to surrounding European nations and to the United States generally under names which would give the illusion of French or Belgian origin. With fixed sights, "STAR" molded grips, standard Spanish proofs, heel magazine catch and a lanyard staple at the heel. Very scarce in small pattern.

Good with small traces of original blue finish in small protected areas. The balance has a nearly uniform gray patina and evidence of past pitting (pistol appears to have been cleaned). All markings are clear and legible. Grips are very good with clear markings, well defined checkering and some light chipping. Mechanically very good.
